SPECIAL USE DISTRICT
a. 
General Purpose and Description:
Special use zoning allows for review of specified uses that may be appropriate in designated areas, provided that consideration is given to conditions that will minimize any negative impacts of the use.
b. 
Applicable Development Standards.
Unless otherwise specified by the Planning and Zoning Commission and by the City Council, no special use approval shall be granted for any use that does not conform to the dimensional standards of the district in which it is located. Each special use shall also be subject to any specific use requirements set forth in this ordinance.
c. 
Special Use Approval Criteria.
Approval of a special use by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council shall be based upon the following criteria:
1. 
Impacts Minimized.
Whether and the extent to which the site plan minimizes adverse effects, including adverse visual impacts, on adjacent properties.
2. 
Consistent with Zoning Ordinance.
Whether and the extent to which the proposed special use would conflict with any portion of this Zoning Ordinance, including the applicable zoning district intent statement.
3. 
Compatible with Surrounding Area.
Whether and the extent to which the proposed special use is compatible with existing and anticipated uses surrounding the subject land.
4. 
Traffic Circulation.
Whether and the extent to which the proposed special use is likely to result in extraordinarily prolonged or recurrent congestion of surrounding streets, especially minor residential streets.
5. 
Effect on Natural Environment.
Whether and the extent to which the proposed special use would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment, including but not limited to water or air quality, noise, stormwater management, wildlife, vegetation, wetlands and the practical functioning of the natural environment.
6. 
Community Need.
Whether and the extent to which the proposed special use addresses a demonstrated community need.
7. 
Development Patterns.
Whether and the extent to which the proposed special use would result in a logical and orderly pattern of urban development in the community.
d. 
Expiration of Special Use Approval.
All special use approvals issued shall be subject to the requirement that the property for which the approval was issued must actually acquire a building permit for the approved use within 12 months from the granting of the special use approval, provided that the City Manager, with significant evidence that the designated use cannot be realistically implemented with due diligence within that time period, may grant a longer period of time, but in no event shall such extension period exceed an additional 12 months.
e. 
Any district.
The Planning and Zoning Commission may consider a special use zone change for a project with unique characteristics including the regulated uses and standards allowed within any respective districts in this Code where the nature of adjacent land uses requires higher development standards than found in such districts.
